My Fellow Priest:
\nIf you recover the body of a murder victim, please proceed as all priests are taught and obligated to proceed:
\n(1) the body when brought into the church for a Funeral Mass is to be covered with a pall and placed near or before the altar, not upon it, and not naked;
\n(2) celebrate obediently the Funeral Mass according to the rubrics of the Church;
\n(3) offer up obediently the prayers that are to follow the Funeral Mass, and then proceed to take the body to its place of burial;
\n(4) complete obediently the rite of burial as laid out by the Church.
\nThis is serious matter. Disobedience is the foundation of all deliberate sin.
\nI give you now merely my own fraternal command: \u201cYou shall not use the bodies of the dead to make political statements.\u201d The end does not justify the means.
\nFraternally yours in Christ and his Church:
\nFr. Stephanos Pedrano, O.S.B.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
